What To Expect

Discover the secret spots in Al Masmak Fortress, a mudbrick fort that played a fundamental role in the unification of Saudi Arabia, with this private immersive guide!

Guided by an expert historian, we’ll visit the historic building and discover the secret tales that live in this key sightseeing spot. As we weave through Al Masmak Fortress, or as some people call it the Al Masmak Palace, we’ll learn about Riyadh’s origin as a capital city and the Recapture of Riyadh in 1902. Finally, we’ll learn about Al Masmak’s current role as a place of remembrance in 21st century Saudi Arabia.

Together, we’ll embark on this epic adventure through time, and learn about the Imam Turki bin Abdullah Mosque and most of Al Masmak’s galleries, from the Courtyard and Historical Galleries, to the Pioneer’s rooms and Watchtower.
